I think it is blind luck. The only problem i have had with my 03 is that there was a tsb for the windows automatically rolling down after rolling them up. Other than that 0 problems. Good luck.

Hit & miss. My 03 had minor feathering but otherwise just fine. Too lower probability, buying used, though, I'd get an 04.

I had the feathering, rear axle clicking and CD skipping. All that may sound bad, but all were repaired and or replaced at no charge and didn't affect safety or overall performance.

Just bought a used 03 and the car had never had any problems and was only serviced for oil changes. So 19k miles and no problems on mine.

I only had the grease spot, the funny window roll up problem and of course the trunk dosen't stay open. I really hate loading my friends wheel chair in the trunk and getting smacked in the head.
